Fan’s of the original 1996 movie, rejoice! The Coen brothers gave their blessing to this fabulous return to the wilds of Minnesota. Billy Bob Thornton gives a stellar performance as a manipulative criminal mastermind who steps into a small-town insurance agent’s life, played by Martin Freedman (another great performance). Bob Odenkirk and Oliver Platt also contribute to the star power. Dreams, deceit, hard choices, and murder? You betcha! Winner of Emmy Awards for Outstanding Miniseries and Outstanding Direction, nominated for 15 additional Emmy Awards, and also winner of two Golden Globes.

The story begins in a grand hotel somewhere in Europe as World War II approaches. Concierge extraordinaire M. Gustave, a romancer of older ladies and mentor to recently hired lobby boy, Zero, becomes a suspect in the murder of one of his special guests. What ensues is a chase around a visually stunning landscape, featuring lots of bad guys (particularly the ultra creepy Willem Dafoe), hairy situations, and cameos from actors well known to fans of Wes Anderson's movies. If, like me, you never thought of Ralph Fiennes as funny, think again. He gives an absolutely amazing performance.

Sarah Silverman crossed with Portlandia? Two women in their 20’s, living in NYC are the center of this Comedy Central series, based upon a web series of the same name that the stars produced from 2009 to 2011. Amy Poehler is an executive producer but don’t expect this to be like Parks and Rec - this is not network television! Ilana (22) works as little as possible and often takes naps in the company’s bathroom stall. Abbi (26) has a job at a health club and often has to clear the bathrooms.

Languid, introspective, and darkly funny, this vampire movie never outright mentions what its main characters are. Adam is a centuries-old musician going through a rough patch while living in seclusion in Detroit. Enter his long-time lover, Eve, thousands of years old and living in Tangiers until Adam calls. The quiet romance and midnight reflections on the rise and fall of lives and societies are at the center of this story, until Eve's uncontrollable little sister shows up, complicating things by doing what we all expect vampires to do.

Action film meets art film. Think Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon but set on a train and without the martial arts. Oh, and it takes place in a future after humans accidentally froze the entire planet and the only survivors are on an arc of a train that’s circumnavigating the planet. An arc-train? Yes - and the aquarium car is amazing! There are some fabulous fight scenes - but more like Gangs of New York meets the modern Korean police force in terms of the fighting style. In addition to fantastic visuals this film also provides some political fodder to keep you intellectually engaged.

In a post-apocalyptic Russia, mercenary Toorop is hired for a difficult job: transport the naive and sheltered Aurora and her guardian, Sister Rebekah, from a convent in Russia to New York City. What seems at first to merely be a matter of obtaining the right falsified identification and booking passage becomes something more when Aurora is revealed to have some strange powers Toorop was not told about when he took the job. People are after Aurora, who knows things she shouldn't know, understands things she's never encountered, and who has to be delivered to New York unharmed.

This is a beautifully animated tale of love, tragedy and war. The latest (and rumored to be the last) release of a Miyazaki film, The Wind Rises tells the story of aeronautical engineer Jiro Horikoshi, a pioneer in aircraft design in the first half of the twentieth century. More than aspiring to achieve flight, Jiro is an artist and dreamer striving to stay true to himself during a trying time in his life and in Japanese history. If you enjoy animation of imaginative tales, this movie is not one to be missed!

Products of a dysfunctional marriage and orphaned at the age of 14 (Dad: suicide; Mom: disinterest), damaged but endearing twins Maggie and Milo are both unhappy, each facing a life crisis of their own making. Close as children but estranged as adults, they meet again in their New York state hometown after 10 years apart and proceed to support and undermine each other in the ways only siblings can.

Spanning two years and three Thanksgivings, this Woody Allen classic hits all his favorite subjects: sex, death and Manhattan. The movie unfolds as a series of vignettes featuring sisters Hannah (Mia Farrow), Lee (Barbara Hershey) and Holly (Dianne Wiest) along with their former, current, and future husbands and lovers. Love, betrayal, aging parents, career angst, hypochondria, and some good religion jokes—what more could you ask for?
